The transfer of PtCl 6 2− ions into the organic phase facilitated by TOA + is the very first step in the Brust‐Schiffrin (BS) two‐phase synthesis of monolayer protected Pt nanoparticles. However, the stoichiometry between TOA + and PtCl 6 2− during the facilitated transfer process is still unknown. In this paper, a hemispherical micro‐liquid/liquid interface, which is formed between a PtCl 6 2− aqueous filled micropipette and an organic phase, has been employed to study the stoichiometry of TOA + facilitated transfer of PtCl 6 2− . Due to the even diffusion field at the hemispherical micro‐liquid/liquid interface, the theoretical i‐V curve for TOA + facilitated transfer of PtCl 6 2− can be derived in a simple way. By simulating the theoretical i‐V curve to the experimental voltammogram, the stoichiometry of TOA + facilitated transfer of PtCl 6 2− was evaluated to be 8.
